This July and August, you can try one of these 100 highly-rated homes, at all price points, and experience a local’s view of Sonoma. 24-hour check-in, Instant Book, and local wine and snacks let you just sit back and enjoy your trip.

My place is close to public transport and the city centre. We are really well located for most things - easy access to the A34, free parking, close to local shops and 10 minutes to the station by bike/bus.
The comfy sofa-bed frees up loads of space in the bedroom when folded away after a good night's sleep.
The kitchen is one of my favourite places to be in the house and the feeling of space in the rest of the house is lovely.
My place is good for couples and solo adventurers.

Located to the West of Oxford, Botley is a diverse area, serving students at Oxford Brookes University and a friendly local community. It is a developing area but still has access to beautiful countryside and riverside walks are easily accessed through North Hinksey. The close itself is very quiet - young children can play safely outside (when the weather permits!) and we are lucky to be outside the areas normally affected by flooding in central Oxford.
The house itself is mostly open plan, so tends to feel spacious and relatively modern while maintaining a classic chalet-style exterior. The living area is knocked through to an informal garden/music room at the rear and you are welcome to take the folding chairs into the garden when the weather permits.
Living room, dining area, kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, garden and driveway.
We will be more than happy to answer any questions you have if we're around when you stay and can help with any ideas for things to do in the area and even borrowing a bike if you'd like to do some bits of exploring. If we're not here, our neighbours at number 22 are happy to help out with advice.

There are plenty of options from our house but if you're going into Oxford city centre, the best option is either bus or bike. We have a working ladies' bike with plenty of carriers for quick shopping trips - just let us know in advance if you'd like to use it.
The bus into the City Centre and the station leaves from the end of the close on the main road. Coming back, the stop is on the other side of the main road where you can also get buses to Witney and Carterton. Buses take 15 mins or so to the centre (a little less to the station) normally but can take longer in peak times.
There is free street parking outside the house - please respect our neighbours and do not block in their cars.
Generally, we are happy for you to make yourself at home and use the cooking facilities (including oils, saucepans and condiments etc).
We do ask that you replace major items if you use them or to leave a note and a contribution so that we can stock up for the next guests.

Nomtha and Anthony were great hosts, very friendly, helpful and welcoming. The room was a really nice comfortable space in a nice area with shops nearby and very convenient for where I was working. Was made to feel very welcome and at home by the hosts... thanks for having me guys and hope to see you again soon!

A large, comfortable and well appointed single room with hospitality tray, tv, free wifi and parking.

Kathryn is the perfect host and I had everything I needed for my short one night stay in the room (pictured).

MartinMay 2016

I had a very pleasant stay at Park House and Kathryn was a very conscientious host. The room is as listed and the bed very comfortable. The modern bathrooms are both scrupulously clean and toiletries supplied should you need them. The house itself is in a very good position for not only the town centre, which is only 10 minutes walk away, but also for Jericho where there are many pleasant places to eat and drink. If you are arriving by car parking on the roadside was a little tricky depending on the time of day, but I managed to park in a space eventually. Kathryn supplies you with the necessary parking permit for your stay.

KathNovember 2016

Kathryn's place is a perfect spot for sightseeing. It is impeccably presented and Kathryn is a thoughtful and kind host. Highly recommended.

MiaOctober 2016

I had a great stay at Kathryn's place! The room itself was of a good size, very clean, and calm. There are two modern bathrooms available, meaning that there is never a problem of access when other people are staying in the other rooms. Every morning Kathryn is preparing a very good breakfast, with a large choice of cereals, breads and jams. Kathryn is also very knowledgeable on the area and how to reach the different places you want to go to! Jericho is a great area to stay in, with a lot of restaurants near-by. Finally, the house itself is easy to reach from the bus station. I would highly recommend Kathryn's place!

ThibaudJune 2016

This is a lovely + cozy home in a great neighborhood. There's a fantastic pub at the end of the street and it's very close to the entrance to Port Meadow!

Kathleen September 2016

Had a wonderful time in oxford made all the more enjoyable by staying with Kathryn. A wonderful lady who also makes a fantastic english breakfast!

ConnorSeptember 2016

Wonderful stay with Kathryn in Oxford! The room had a lovely view of the garden and conservatory where Kathryn has her restauration studio. The B&B is central, yet quiet, in fact I have not slept as well for a long time. The house is charming, with a beautiful typically English kitchen next to the garden. In fact, I felt so wonderful I did not want to leave any more.

A pretty & cosy bedroom on the first floor of a stylishly and bookishly decorated house, 1.2 miles from Carfax Tower, Oxford's centre. The room overlooks a secluded garden, with a shared bathroom on the ground floor. Enjoy a breakfast of toast & freshly laid eggs, coffee/tea & juice.

The bedroom is freshly painted with hand painted furniture. The bed is a small double with a thick new mattress and soft pillows. The room has a bedside lamp and a standard lamp, and a comfy wicker chair. The view from the window is of the back garden, overlooking a quince tree. As the room is at the back of the house it's very quiet. The house has been decorated tastefully with handicrafts from Asia and Africa. It is crammed with books and paintings.
Living and dining rooms. Garden. Patio. Bathroom
As my partner and I live in the house we will be on hand in the living room. I know Oxford well having studied at the university and lived in the city for 25 years.

New Hinksey is a quiet neighbourhood adjoining Grandpont in the southern part of Oxford not far from the old village of South Hinksey. The 117 year old church of St John the Evangelist is at the end of our street on the way to the open-air and heated Hinksey pool which is a 5 minute walk. Easy parking.
Short walk to town centre ( 1.2 miles from the house to Carfax Tower which is the centre of Oxford), via St Aldates. Frequent buses from Abingdon Road (a two minute walk from the house) to town centre and the railway station. The cycle path to the town centre passes in front of the house. There are lovely walks from the house, including the walk along an old track called the Devil's Backbone to South Hinksey village and slightly further afield to Happy Valley, Boars Hill and Hinksey Heights. And if you cross Abingdon Rd you get to the river Thames and can walk on the towpath towards Christ Church and Merton colleges watching rowers, punters and narrow boat dwellers. Or you can walk directly into town on Abingdon Road passing the Four Pillars hotel and a number of Oxford college sports & recreation grounds on the way and walking over Folly Bridge, the site of Oxford's first stone bridge, past the Old Palace (built in about 1622-8) and the site of South Gate, Christ Church, Pembroke College, Campion Hall and the late Victorian neo-Jacobean Town Hall. Another lovely walk into the city centre is over meadows and back lanes passing the 11th century St George's Tower, the sole surviving structure of Oxford Castle, and the new Westgate development.

The house itself is a book lover's delight. It is situated on a quiet secluded street just south of the town centre close by to the open air Hinksey swimming pool. The Duke of Monmouth, General Elliot, the White House pubs and the Isis Tavern are walking distances from the house. Abingdon Road has a number of cafes and shops including the Portuguese Akiport cafe, and Tesco Express. Plenty of parking on our street. Hinksey Lake and the swimming pool are practically around the corner and the river is very close by too. Easy parking on the street.

This was my first experience wirh airbnb and it could have not been better! The lovely hosts Siddo and Rick, were so kind and they took real care of me, even gave me a delicious dinner!! Although it was short, my stay was absolutly outstanding, I would totally recommend this house!

ElenaAugust 2016

Siddo and his partner (sorry I forget his name) gave us a very warm welcome with tea and homemade cake. Their house is a veritable museum of interesting artifacts from India, China and Africa. Quite amazing!

This is a new modern self catered two-roomed studio annex in the lovely village of Cumnor with easy access to Oxford. You have your own front door to the private annex that is part of larger detached home and free wifi connection.

Cumnor is a rather special Oxfordshire village in that it perfectly located for rapid easy access to all major routes north, south, east, and west. Self catering provisions can bought at the local supermarkets such a Waitrose and Tesco located along the Botley Road. There are also lots of lovely walks in the countryside from your front door.
The city centre is accessed by a simple short drive, direct bus route, or a 15 minute cycle ride. We're located on the right side of the city for the two major rail stops of Oxford Station and Oxford Parkway and the X90, Oxford tube, and the Heathrow/Gatwick/Birmingham/Luton bus services can be accessed at the Gloucester Green.
Secure covered cycle parking is provided; help can be provided to fix bike faults because my partner is a keen cyclist.

Quiet, central and on the river.
There are buses to everywhere from central bus station, which is really near, as is the railway station.

I had a wonderful stay with Julia. Although we interacted briefly, she was lovely to chat with and made me feel welcome right away. The room was clean, comfortable, and bright. Would definitely stay here again. :)

SaraOctober 2015

Julia is incredibly kind, warm and welcoming and her home is absolutely lovely! Having a bedroom with en suite was great for privacy. It has been beautifully decorated with a modern bathroom (and added bonus of a rain shower!). Her home is well located to the train station and just a short walk to the city centre. My thanks to Julia for a comfortable, enjoyable stay during my last few days in Oxford!

Jessica October 2015

Julia has a beautiful home, with very comfortable rooms. She's a great host and the area is very charming, the local pub has excellent food!

A lovely clean space with double bed, built in wardrobe and shelves for clothing and a bathroom en suite. Crisp clean linen, towels and breakfast provided, all less than ten minutes walk from everywhere special in Oxford.

This house was bought for its location - being so close to the centre of an amazing city like Oxford has really paid off. It's lovely being a short walk away from all that is going on here - so much beauty, learning and green spaces for a bit of peace.
The guest accommodation consists of a double bedroom, in our basement, with an en suite shower room. Our house is small (a price we were happy to pay for the central location) so don't expect a huge and spacious room! It measures 11' x 9' or 3.3m x 2.8m. The room is reached by going downstairs through the garden and has its own entrance (check out the photos). The house is Edwardian outside but super modern inside - minimalist emphasis on style over content.
Guests can expect a clean and comfortable night's stay with a shower/bathroom, towels provided. Tea and coffee making facilities are provided in the room, and there are plenty of great cafes nearby. There is a hairdryer provided with a mirror beside it.
There is an electric heater in case you feel chilly in English summers (!) and an iron and ironing board available if wanted.
Unfortunately, only adults can be accommodated here as the room is not set up for children, however little!
Breakfast is provided upstairs which will be home made muesli, juice, fruit in season, home bread bread and marmalade - see photos! Seriously good for you!
Three doors down from the house is one of Oxford's best Lebanese restaurants, and up the road is Oxford's trendy Jericho area full of bars and restaurants. There is an excellent art house cinema 7 minutes walk away - which shows lots of foreign films - see photos.
The bus station (which has 2 lines to London) is 7 minutes walk away and the train station is 12 minutes walk away.
Their own entrance to their room so they can come and go as they please. Breakfast is provided upstairs.
Few of our guests arrive by car as the transport links to Oxford are easy to use, and our house is so close to the city centre - but for those who do want to park, there is a website called justpark that lists nearby places.
We like having breakfast with guests, and providing them with a yummy healthy start to the day. Whenever possible one of us will be at home to give out keys and introduce guests to their rooms. We have a new key-safe system so that guests can check themselves in at other times.

Jericho is the coolest place to live in Oxford. It is its own little neighbourhood with bars, restaurants, cinema, pubs with music nights AND 5 minutes from the main shopping streets and some of the most beautiful architecture in England - Oxford University.
Everywhere is walkable and bikes can be hired nearby. Guests have used Walton Street Cycles, which is a short walk away.

Hoonie and Hugh were perfect hosts for our first airbnb experience. They were gracious, fun, kind and helpful and gave lots of good tips for our stay in Oxford. We had fun and informative chats over the delicious homemade muesli, fruit, yogurt and toast breakfast (with most scrumptious homemade marmelade). The location was perfect for walking to both the bus and rail stations as well as the town centre. The separate entrance was nice for coming and going and the bedroom and bathroom were both roomy and comfortable. The neighborhood was quiet and safe and we were able to walk back late at night. Hoonie went absolutely over and above in making our daughter feel welcome in her new city.

EllieOctober 2014

Hoodie and Hugh made us feel very welcome in their Oxford home. The location is great, just a few minutes walk from the Ashmolean and a few more to City Centre. They provided us with a tasty, nutritious breakfast which set us up for a wonderful, busy day exploring Oxford. They also provided helpful advice for planning our day.

AnnaAugust 2015

We had a great pleasure staying at Hoonie and Hugh's place while exploring Oxford. they are located in a walking distance from all the places you want to visit. we got a warm welcome and Hugh helped me by providing a temporary parking permit for my rented car. in the morning we also had the pleasure to have breakfast with Hoonie and Hugh and enjoyed the conversation as well as the fresh juice and everything else. Thank you Hoonie and Hugh! it was a real pleasure meeting you and staying at your place!

UdiMarch 2014

A nifty little find on a great location around the corner from everything and most welcoming hosts! We enjoyed Hoonie & Hugh's company and the delectable breakfast - homemade jam, muesli and a nice cup of coffee!!! :-)

BojanAugust 2016

Hoonie's place was just what we needed for our stay in Oxford for the Half Marathon. It is a lovely room, with a fantastic hot shower in the ensuite bathroom, and the location was just perfect. We used to live in North Oxford, and it was great to wander into Jericho in the evenings to see what was new, and what was still gorgeous :) Hoonie and Hugh are fun and fascinating hosts. We very much enjoyed sharing a delicious home-made breakfast, and stimulating conversation, with them. Cheers!

AbiOctober 2016

Hoonie and Hugh were absolutely wonderful. I recommend them for anyone wanting to stay in Oxford Close to town and lots of great places to eat just up the road. Very convenient I don't think you could find better hosts.

CATHERINEJuly 2016

I really enjoyed staying here. Clean, cosy, great location, and truly delightful hosts. I can't say enough positive things about the absolutely amazing breakfast. I would recommend to anyone needing a nice, friendly place to stay in Oxford.

The apartment is in the basement of our Victorian house in a quiet residential street of bustling Summertown, voted the best place to live in the UK! Moments from cafes, restaurants, shops and public transport to city centre (5 mins by bus), this is a great place to base yourself in Oxford. Well - connected to both Oxford and Oxford Parkway stations. On - street parking available by voucher, if required.

The apartment is furnished with an eclectic mix of antique and modern furniture. It has a well-equipped kitchen, a bathroom with over-bath shower attachment, washing machine, microwave, tv with integral freeview and DVD player. A super-comfortable double bed with good-quality Egyptian cotton sheets and duvet cover. The location is fantastic - a safe and family-friendly residential area with the benefit of everything you need on your doorstep, including sports facilities. 1 mile from the ring road with fast access to the Cotswolds, Blenheim Palace, the Cotswold Wildlife Park and Cheltenham, 15 minutes' drive to Bicester Village shopping outlet. Altogether an ideal base to explore all the area has to offer.
Guests have exclusive use of the whole apartment with its own access down steepish steps (not suitable for elderly or disabled). There is a key box to which we give you a code so you can arrive whenever is convenient after 3pm. The apartment is one storey of our family house, so whilst we are considerate, you will be aware we are in the house.
We are normally around during school term times ( we have children of 12 and 14) and happy to help with queries. If we are not going to be at home during your stay we would inform you and supply you with contact details in case of need.

Great neighbourhood - lively during the day and quiet at night. Starbucks, Costa, Gail's, an independent French Patisserie, all a few yards from the house. Also restaurants of all types, several supermarkets, pharmacies, doctors, dentists, banks. Public sports centre and gym 2 mins' walk.
Excellent, frequent buses running to Oxford Parkway station in one direction and the city centre in the other.
Parking (something of a rarity in Oxford) is by permit in the street, often it is easier to park about 50 yards away from the house in the opposite direction to the shops! Please let us know if you require a permit.

My place is close to the city centre, parks (tennis and swim pool), culture, and restaurants and shops. You’ll love it because of the location. It is good for solo visitors and academics. It has an urban/ rural feel. One side, opens onto the city ( a 10 minute walk) and the other, a mill stream and the River Thames. My place is good for visitors and academics. It is ideal for anyone walking the Thames Path. Transport links are good being near the bus and rail stations. Also close to ice rink.

Many thanks to Ruth and Ian for a great stay. They were very friendly hosts and their home is in an excellent location, with easy access on foot to the town centre.

GeraldSeptember 2016

I had a great stay at Ruth's. Her house is central (only a ten-minute walk from Broad St) and is located in a quiet residential area. The Thames Path is very close too, so an ideal place for walking and cycling. The room is fine and the bathroom spacious and very clean.

HillieOctober 2016

Although I turned up early, Ruth made me welcome and everything was soon ready. The house is very attractive, spotlessly clean and full of interesting things. My room was quiet and comfortable - great mattress! so I was content to spend my evenings there. The location was great - so close to river walks but also near enough to the city, station etc. Ruth and Ian are used to having students and other visitors but their home still felt like their private space. I enjoyed talking to both of them and would happily return.

PollyNovember 2016

Ruth's place was an excellent place to stay as it was in walking distance of the city center. Ruth was particularly hospitable and made for a very comfortable stay. The room and bathroom were spotless when I arrived and I would definitely recommend her place. Thank you Ruth!

Our place in hip Jericho is close to the city centre, the colleges and in the swim of art and culture, restaurants and cafes. We welcome couples, solo adventurers or academic and business travellers. Healthy (mostly organic) breakfast included.

I absolutely adored my stay with Sally and Henry! Such a great couple who wake up at the crack of dawn to make you breakfast and provide with very entertaining conversation. Their home is beautiful with so much character and the room itself is very cosy and comfortable with a great little working area. The location of the house is perfect and I have fallen in love with Oxford! I'll be back again in October and hopefully plan on staying with them again as I enjoyed my stay so much :) Thanks guys! It was a pleasure to meet you x

NicoleAugust 2016

Sally and Henry were wonderfull hosts, friendly and thoughtfull. The house and the room (and the breakfast!) are very nice. We really enjoyed our trip in Oxford!

FloreAugust 2016

Sally's place was fantastic. It was just as described. The room was large and the bed was comfy. There were also tea and biscuits in the room which was a nice touch. By far the best thing about the property is the location. <10 min walk into central Oxford. You are also nearby a co-op and a hip street with bars and cafes. Sally provided a good breakfast which left us full. No problems with the shared bathroom. Thoroughly recommended.

MarkAugust 2016

A nice, calm place just a walk (along a lovely channel) away from the train station, bus stop and city center. The house itself provides everything a visitor could desire, including a charming host :) When returning to Oxford, I will definitely try to get to the same place again.

LucasJuly 2016

Sally and Henry were welcoming, gracious and relaxed hosts ... and wonderful storytellers. Their space is beautiful and well-lit, filled with memorabilia and stories from their world travels as well as their experiences in organic agriculture and sustainable development ... you must try the beetroot breakfast drink! Their place itself is located in Jericho, a laid-back and vibrant area about 15-20 mins walk from Oxford city centre. We really enjoyed our time there and highly recommend a stay with them.

EireneJuly 2016

The home was very cozy, the room and bathroom were perfect for the two of us. The hosts went out of their way to accommodate our check in needs and had breakfast available every morning. I highly recommend the area as well, great pubs and restaurants close by and easily walkable to campus. 5 stars.

ChrisSeptember 2016

It was a wonderful stay at Sally's and Henry's cosy flat. The two were so lovely and helpful. The organic breakfast was very delicious and we enjoyed the time there. The flat is walking distance from the city centre and close to some nice cafés and restaurants in Walton Street. We would love to stay here again, if we come back to Oxford. Would highly recommend. Thanks again for a great stay

The room is in a Victorian terraced house, originally built for Christ Church College and located on a quiet residential street near to all the sights and shops, as well as the river Thames and Port Meadow. We are just 5 minutes from the Said Business School. Being so near to the river there are some lovely areas to walk or jog around. In the local park there are free to use tennis courts.

We have two very friendly cats!
The room is at the top of the house (so up two flights of stairs) and both the bedroom and small ensuite have sloping ceilings so sadly this house may not be suitable for anyone with difficulties with mobility. Although we are more than happy to help you with carrying luggage up to your room.
Most of central Oxford has controlled parking. On our street there are on street visitor parking spaces (subject to availability) - these allow parking for 2 hours or from 6.30pm to 10.00am Monday to Saturday (Sunday no restrictions on the length of stay in the visitor spaces) or you can purchase a 24 hour parking permit from us for £5 which allows you to park in the residents or visitor spaces.

The listing was even better than we hoped - a beautiful room in a beautiful house and the perfect location! Such welcoming hosts, more than happy to accommodate our later check-in time. The room's facilities are what one would expect of a hotel and the breakfast was incredible - felt like I was back in France waking up to the smell of freshly baked croissants! Thank you so much!

Aeron and Caroline were the perfect hosts. The room is a light and open space on the top floor, and was very pleasant. The location is excellent, right next to the train station and Saïd Business School. The hosts are helpful guides to the city, and I will absolutely try to stay here again the next time I'm in Oxford.

AndreiMay 2015

Aeron and Caroline made me feel very welcome and at ease in their lovely place. The room itself is clean, light, spacious, very comfortable and private. Having the ability to make coffee and tea in the room was a real bonus (and the cookies and chocolate provided was a lovely extra touch). I was thrilled to have a very comfortable bed (no saggy or lumpy mattress here!). The breakfasts that were provided offered lots of choices, with great coffee or tea and a wonderful variety of fresh and tasty breakfast-type foods. The location is truly excellent--just a five-minute walk from the railway station, a ten-minute walk into the city center, and a couple of minutes away from a very beautiful path along the river where you can see birds, barges and even walk a couple of miles to a ruined abbey. Absolutely no complaints whatsoever. Thoroughly happy with my stay and would recommend to anyone seeking comfortable accommodations in Oxford.

elaineJune 2015

Our stay with Areon was fantastic! His place is beautiful, really close to the city center and to the mayor attractions in Oxford. If you are traveling by car, it is easy to find a place in front of his place. Aeron is a fantastic host, the communication with him was very fluid since the very beginning. He provided us with a lot of useful information and he even arranged a parking permit for free. The room was clean, the bathroom immaculate. The breakfast was simply amazing! only fresh products with a lot of choices, it was one of the best and most delicious breakfast we had during our holidays! We were sad we could´t stay longer. I strongly recommend to stay at Aeron´s place. If we ever come back to Oxford we will surely stay again at his place!

OmarSeptember 2016

Everything was perfect. The apartment is very well located and everything like in the pictures. Recommend to everyone in Oxford.

LeandroFebruary 2016

Aeron was the best Airbnb host I have ever had. Great space and great value right near everything you want to do in Oxford. If you are on the fence, choose Aeron because the space won't disappoint. Six out of five stars!

RobertAugust 2016

I had a vet nice stay at Aeron and Caroline' house. The house is at the good location, and the room is a very spacy, comfortable, from-the-edge-to-edge well-maintained and super-clean. And breakfast was fantastic. But what I liked best was Aeron and Caroline. They are super nice but not too pushy at all. I had specific purpose to visit Oxford and needed some guidance. They were very helpful and searched for me as if it had been for themselves. I really recommend this for the location, the room, the breakfast and the hosts.

KenjiMarch 2016

We had a lovely stay with Aeron & Caroline they made us feel very welcome and the breakfast was superb. Location was great a short walk into town and right by the river. We really enjoyed our stay, Thank you

My beautiful traditional narrowboat is located on the Thames, in peaceful surroundings 10-20 minutes walk from Oxford's city centre.
My boat offers a neat and uncluttered space which harmonises beautifully with the natural surroundings. This, alongside a hint of the traditional way of life, makes for a memorable stay.

It has gas powered hot water, and a comfortable bed.
Towels, bedding, cutlery and crockery are provided.
Please note that it is not connected to mains electricity. Phone recharging and lighting therefore operate on 12v system.
I will introduce guests to the boat, and be on hand should any questions arise.
Other than that, I am not around the boat and guests will have their privacy

The boat is located with 10 minutes of the city, as well as nearby rail and bus stations

What a cracking little boat. The host was polite and would go out of his way to help. Hope to stay again soon.

SteveJuly 2016

Vaughan was very kind and very helpful. The boat itself is just amazing, We spent a wonderful night there, the location was just beautiful and on top very close to the city centre. There is everything on the boat you might need and everything was very clean and tidy. I definitely recommend it to everyone how wants to spend a really special night in Oxford.

SilvanAugust 2016

We had a lovely stay on Vaughans boat. Situated in a great location close to the city centre but far enough out that it wasn't noisy! Vaughan was really helpful before and throughout the stay. Highly recommend staying there

CharlieAugust 2016

Lovely, unique place to stay in a beautiful location. Enjoyed feeding ducklings from the window and sitting in the sun on roof of boat. Everything you need for a short stay. Vaughan was very friendly and helpful.

BethAugust 2016

Our stay with Vaughn was perfect - and despite rubbish weather we had a truly relaxing stay on a warm, cosy & comfortable boat. The wifi was a particularly excellent touch :-) My bf said "the kindest man I have ever met"...

EmmaAugust 2016

We loved everything about this airbnb! Vaughan met us at the train station and showed us to the boat. He told us everything we needed to know and made us feel very at home. The boat is beautiful - very cool interior and everything you could possibly need. The location is peaceful - beautiful sunset with ducks swimming by whilst we sat out with a glass of wine. This is a great deal for a property in Oxford - we couldn't rate the boat and Vaughan himself much higher! 5 star experience :)

IsabelAugust 2016

It was a great experience to stay in Vaughan's cosy little narrow boat. Vaughan was an excellent host, friendly, welcoming and easy to communicate with. the only issue was the small bed. If you are tall, you might not be comfortable.

IhoriSeptember 2016

A fine narrow boat, we had a very lovely stay. The host Vaughan was very helpful.

My cute little house is located 2 minutes from Oxford train station and a 5 minute walk into town. The street is quite and backs on to the River Thames. Which is an ideal location for a pleasant walk through the city.

I recently completely refurbished the place. It was a long and tiring process but totally worth it. The room is simply gorgeous. It is the perfect size and I made sure not to over clutter it. The bedroom is to the rear of the property and is south facing. I decided to go with a super comfy pocket sprung mattress and memory foam topper. I have installed a goose feathered chandelier in the middle of the room. It honestly feels like being on a cloud.
I plan on renting 2 of the 3 bedrooms out per night. So there could be other people in the house. I have over 12 years of experience working in hospitality. I have worked in Oxford, London, Berlin, Paris and Rio de Janeiro. This space is all about YOU! My dream is to open a small boutique hotel and restaurant. So I am using this to get feedback from all of my guests. Hopefully my guests will be able to help me along the way.
The house is open to everyone. Feel free to sit in the living room watch tv, play the playstation and play music. You can hang out in the garden. The kitchen is open to cook. Just do the washing up afterwards.
I am here to help you. If you need any help with travel, night life etc. then please say so. If you would like privacy then I can make sure noise levels are kept to a minimum.

I think this house is located in the best area of Oxford. It is located close to the train station and city. You are close to all of the trendy bars and restaurants of Jericho and George Street. A bus from the train station can take you to anywhere in the city. It is also a quite area. It truly is the best of both worlds. I love it.
Buses available to all areas of the city and county from the train station.
A help yourself breakfast will be provided for all guests. Cereal, fruit, coffee, tea and you are welcome to cook whatever. If I don't have an early start then I am totally up for cooking it. I also have over 200Mbps fibre optic broadband. I understand the value of a reliable and fast internet connection.

Billy is a fantastic host, he went extra miles to ensure that the living experience is not compromised in anyway! Not to mentional the perfect location. I actually accidentally broke the curtain, he was kind to fix it immediately without any extra cost. Very good experience, would definite recommend anyone to stay there.

ZhaoSeptember 2016

Not difficult to see why Billy is a Super Host! Great stay, great guy.

MattOctober 2016

Billy's full of warm hospitality and handy info of the area. Don't miss this cute spot in Oxford!

VincyOctober 2016

Billy was great and rooms were clean. Good for a few nights.

MelissaSeptember 2016

Billy is very nice, responsive, accommodative and good in communication. Location is easy and straight forward and great, with my huge luggage it also took me 5mins walk to the train station only. And the area is quiet, peaceful and make you feel safe even at night. You can feel Billy wants to make you feel good in every way he can when staying in his place. I love the room's stylish design, the light is so beautiful and the bed is very comfyyyyy! The bathroom is superrrr spacious and clean and beautifully designed and decorated too. Too bad that I am in a rush and not able to enjoy the lovely breakfast/dining table area where you can enjoy sunshine through the glass ceiling and the garden view. Thanks Billy for hosting me I will come back for sure if I am visiting Oxford again. :)

JackykyOctober 2016

Billy is a fantastic host - warm, welcoming and he gave us some top tips. Location is excellent - 5 mins walk from the station and a short walk into the city. Lovely room and breakfast provided (a rarity in our experience!).

TomMay 2016

Billy was a great communicator. The space was extremely relaxing and well-designed. It was the first full night of rest that I had while on vacation in Europe. The bathroom is a work of art! The kitchen was well-stocked with breakfast materials (including Heinz beans for the traditional English breakfast). Very easy to find and within a short walk of the train station and city centre. Couldn't recommend it more highly.

MercuryNovember 2016

At arrival I received the warmest welcome by Billy. The house is spotless clean and well decorated. The bedroom is light and comfy, the bathroom royal. Well done Billy!

My wife and I have a very tidy and cosy two bed house with a spare double room available. Ideally located, we are easily accessible to central Oxford's sites, restaurants, pubs, and shops, only an 8 min walk to the train station, and equally close to the beautiful Port Meadow.

The room is east facing (morning sun!) with a double bed that overlooks our back garden - and beyond the fence, a branch of The River Thames! The bed is very comfy and topped with a feather duvet and pillows. There is also a clothes rack, with plenty of hangers, and a shoe rack, as well as a full length mirror in the room. And...fresh towels are provided upon arrival!
Light use of the kitchen with use of the washer/dryer for guests staying longer than 2 days, upon request.
Traffic in Oxford is notoriously bad - there are a couple of visitor parking spaces but we can't guarantee they will be available.
We are very friendly and hospitable - keen to ensure your stay with us enjoyable; however, we recognise you're not here to see us, so will let you do your thing! ;-)

Located in a quiet cul de sac, we're only a short walk to central Oxford. Whether it be the Säid Business School, the train station, the Ashmolean, Bodleian, Radcliffe Camera, or to go punting down the river, our house is the perfect location for you to use as base camp during your time in Oxford.
Bus stop to central Oxford a 30 second walk away, Oxford Railway Station and central Oxford 10 min walk away. Port Meadow and Oxford canal walking trails, 5-10 mins and lots of pubs nearby too.
We have a Cocker Spaniel puppy, Florence, who is very friendly and sweet - she's not allowed upstairs near the bedrooms and sleeps in her crate in the living room. So, apart from getting a welcome at the door, you can ignore her or play with her as much as you like, although she is teething at the moment so watch your fingers (and shoes and cords)!

Had a lovely stay in their beautiful home. Great hosts!

ImogenSeptember 2016

If there ever was a perfect host, it would be Mike.

AdeniyiSeptember 2016

Mike was very welcoming and eager to please. They said they have not been offering this room for very long and so were not very experienced at hosting, but everything was considered and provided. While the room was small it was very comfortable, and perfect for me as I just needed somewhere for a quick overnight stopover. The location was very convenient for the station, and the centre of Oxford was only a short walk away and easy to find.

ChristianAugust 2016

We spend two perfect days in Oxford, thanks to our host and his cosy home. We check in pretty late due to Eurostar problems but Mike welcomed us with a big smile and showed us around. Our room was very clean and quiet, fast wifi. Even electrical adapters were provided (thanks again!). Beautiful neighbourhood, supermarket close by and a 10 mins walk to Oxford city center. Overall an excellent airbnb experience, i would recommend Mike's place anytime.

MarcSeptember 2016

Mike and his wife Jen are very nice. They gave us some useful tips. The house is lovely and very near the station. The transportation nearby is also convenient. My friend and I have a great experience in Oxford.

jingSeptember 2016

Mike was great, so responsive before we arrived and very warm and welcoming when we did arrive. Couldn't fault it in anyway, would most definitely stay here again next time we are in Oxford. A lovely house and a lovely guy.

andrewAugust 2016

Fantastic hosts and a nice short walk into town. We had a few really nice chats and some fantastic advice on what to see and do. The morning cup of tea was very nice too. Highly recommended!

Tim and JudithAugust 2016

My stay at Mike`s house has been fantastic. His house is really nice with great character. The room where I stayed is very cosy and comfy. One of the best thing is how close is the house from the city centre: less than 10 minutes by walking!!! But the best thing I can tell about this experience is how nice and warm is Mike and his partner: they were very generous and did all the necessary me to have a wonderful trip.

Tim was very friendly and helpful with welcoming us and making sure we had everything we needed. The room was excellent, clean, well stocked and coffee/tea/breakfast was fantastic also. Thanks again for a lovely stay!

XanderOctober 2016

Great room on the top floor of a family house, own bathroom and a nice breakfast provided. Tim and his family are very helpful. Would definitely recommend!

IskraOctober 2016

We've had a lovely stay with Tim and Clare. They're such friendly people, always in for a chat and ready to help. The room was light and clean, a very good size room for two people to stay in. The breakfast provided was very good and fresh. We felt welcome and would love to come back.

SarahSeptember 2016

I stayed for one night. Tim is very kind and made sure I had everything I needed. The bedroom and en-suite bathroom are charming and clean. Overall, the value for money is very good considering the location and amenities provided. Thanks Tim!

PeterSeptember 2016

The room was perfect for our needs. It is clean, airy and exactly as the pictures show. The area is quiet and residential, but only a ten minute walk from central Oxford, via a clear and easy route. You are very near the train station for travel. But the best thing about it was how our hosts went out of their way to make our stay more pleasant! Lovely touches like fresh towels, a range of teas, a tin of bread left for us to toast in the morning and kind recommendations about parking (!) made our overnight stay really relaxed and lovely. They got on with their own business but made us feel like we were no inconvenience if we did need something. I'd highly recommend it.

RubyJune 2016

Tim is a very nice and welcoming and his place is amazing! It is very convenient to get to central Oxford and perfect location to take trains. The room is spacious and comfortable. We had a great weekend in Oxford.

QianranSeptember 2016

We stayed Oxford just one night. Although we have not much time talking with Tim and his family due to our late arrival and early check out, we find they are so friendly and welcoming. The information they provide are very useful that help us to find a good Chinese resturant "My Sichuan". They also allowed us to leave the lugguge after check out and get it whenever we want. Everything is just so perfect that make us feel like home. BTW, my wife love this room very much, for the style and facility. Thanks a lot! 尽管只在牛津待了一晚,并且早出晚归,没能跟Tim一家有太多交流,但是依旧感受得到他们的友好和热情。他们提供的信息非常完备,为客人们想到一切,甚至帮助我们找到了一家味道不错的川菜“成都印象”。退房后他们给我们留了把钥匙,方便我们随时回去取行李,解决了我们的困扰。另外,房间的风格和陈设很棒,我妻子非常喜欢,一切的一切都让我们仿佛在自己家一样。感谢这次旅行!

We are situated in a quiet Oxfordshire village lying just 4 miles from Oxford City. The room is furnished with a kingsize bed and we provide towels, tv and free wifi. The breakfast room is adjacent to the bedroom and we offer a continental style breakfast,coffee & tea making inc. We are quite happy to provide the use of an iron and hairdryer and offer our help wherever possible. Breakfast times are arranged to suit you and our aim is to make your stay with us as pleasant as we possibly can.

A regular bus service runs from the village to Oxford and Abingdon which are only 5 and 3 miles away from Dry Sandford. Didcot and Witney are a short drive and you can be in the Cotswold town of Burford in 30 minutes. We always endeavour to make our guests feel at home. An evening meal could be provided at an extra charge but would have to be arranged prior to the visit.
Guests will have the use of their bedroom and en suite plus the breakfast room. Checking in will be after 2 pm and checking out before 11 am. though these times can sometimes be negotiated.
We will be more than happy to share any information that may help our guests to enjoy their stay with us.

The village has an interesting nature walk where if you are lucky you can walk around the reed beds and spot a few unusual flowers and birds. A 30 minute walk will bring you to the Dry Sandford Pit which is a fascinating mosaic of fossil-rich cliffs, fenland with ponds and streams.
Oxford and Didcot railway stations are a short drive away.

Edmond and Liz were great hosts, really friendly and welcoming. The room is exactly as described, with a lovely breakfast room and rich breakfast in the morning! I wouldn't hesitate to stay again!

AdeleJuly 2016

This was our first experience of Airbnb and staying with Liz and Esmond was just perfect for us. They have a gift for hospitality, and made us feel like friends rather than guests. They made us so welcome at their stylish modern home which was immaculate and comfortable, and we immediately felt relaxed. Our own en suite and breakfast room with tea/coffee making facilities was a touch of luxury. The location was good for visiting Oxford and the substantial continental breakfast was an excellent start to each day. We enjoyed our short stay very much and will be using Airbnb again!

MargaretSeptember 2016

Esmond and Liz were very kind and friendly and they immediately put us at ease in their lovely house. The room is bright, the bed very comfortable and it was all deeply clean. The house is not far from the Oxford city centre and if you have a car is just 10-12 min. They kindly asked us whether we wanted have breakfast in the breakfast room (lovely and just in front of the room) or in the garden (big and beautiful). It has really been a pleasure meet them! We can surely recommend this solution to other 'Air bnb'-ers.

FrancescaAugust 2016

This was our first stop on our road trip. Esmond and Liz were great hosts, accomodating and quick to share information about nearby restaurants. The bedroom had enough space to move around and put our bags down, but not much else. Fortunately, the breakfast room was next door, where we could read, chill out and have a cup of tea. The en suite bathroom was spacious and clean. Towels were big enough to work amd pillows were firm enough (this isn't always a given). A continental breakfast was served - a generous spread with cereal, yoghurt, fruit, croissants, muffins. Overall, we enjoyed our stay here. It was quiet and peaceful. Food was also within walking distance.

IjeanJuly 2016

I totally recommend this place. My boyfriend and I only booked 5 hours prior to our arrival yet we found the room ready and super clean when we arrived at the house. Esmond and Liz are fantastic hosts, both very friendly and an interesting couple to share stories with. The house is also well located, there are a few pubs in the area and the centre of Oxford is just a 10 minute drive away. We enjoyed every minute of our stay and will definitely be back!

CynthiaSeptember 2016

Esmond and Liz are lovely couple and they are really accommodative to our extra request. They welcome us warmly and it is wonderful to stay in their home. Love and enjoy their beautiful garden!! In addition, Esmond is great advice for direction. The room is clean and the bed is really comfortable. Breakfast is great!! Well love to stay with them again if I am in Oxford.

RachelJuly 2016

We could not have asked for a lovelier couple to stay with. After an awful journey due to horrendous traffic, both Esmond and Liz were incredibly helpful and understanding as we rushed in and out to make the wedding we were going to in time. Their home is beautiful and homely with all the comforts of a hotel within the setting of a warm family home. In the morning they could not have been more welcoming; they were charismatic and charming, and their interesting and easy conversation and (URL HIDDEN) meant that, when they invited us to join them for breakfast in their kitchen-diner rather than the breakfast room for guests, we were only too happy to do so. We sat in the garden in the sunshine and enjoyed their company immensely. Perhaps an indicator of just how kind and welcoming hosts Esmond and Liz are, was when our taxi took an age to arrive, and Liz offered to take us in her car instead which was such a generous gesture and one we appreciated hugely. We can't recommend them as hosts enough. Thank you, Liz and Esmond, for your kindness and warmth, and for enhancing our stay in Oxfordshire.

Jake October 2016

Very quick (1 short night) but nice stay. Liz & Esmond are kind, flexible and welcoming. The bedroom/bathroom are large, comfortable, quite and perfectly clean. Excellent night and good breakfast. To sump up, the service is very good and I do recommand them as host.

We had a great time during our stay at Melanie's place. She and her daughter welcomed us really warm and friendly. The communication with them was quite easy and our check in and out worked perfectly. Everything was as described and we've got many additional information about the city. She even took her time to show us around the city. We would definitely recommend a stay at their cosy home.
